Mean Black Moan Lyrics
It's a mean black moan:and it's lying front of my door
When I leave chicago:lord I ain't coming back no more
Ninety men were laid off:at the railroad shop
And the strike in chicago:lordy lord it just won't stop
I'm tired of mean black moans:friends lying front of my door
But when I leave chicago lord:i ain't coming back here no more
All around my bed
I wish somebody:might be able to kill the black moan dead
Every morning:lord rent man is at my door
And my man hasn't worked lord:in two or three weeks or more
It's all I can do lord:ah fight for my life
But when the strike is over:lord I will be all right
